The TV licence might be scrapped when super-fast broadband is available in all homes, the media minister has said. John Whittingdale said there would "come a time" when the BBC would instead be funded by a Netflix-style subscription, but only when every home has fast enough speeds to stream TV online. He added that this may be the case by 2027, when the BBC's charter is up for renewal, but until then the licence fee remained the best way of funding the corporation.
